- Different appraisals put its size somewhere in the range of 45 up to 60 feet long. To place that into point of view, 60 feet would make the Megalodon around multiple times the size of the normal incredible white shark. 

- There's presently an exceptionally restricted measure of Megalodon fossils. Shark skeletons are made of ligament, which doesn't fossilize quite well. In this way, that implies practically all that remaining parts of the powerful Meg are its teeth, which have been found on each mainland with the exception of Asia and Antarctica. 

- Most of its teeth were around 4 to 5 inches long, however the biggest tooth at any point found was 7.48 inches, and it was found in Peru. 

- In request to eat consistently on huge prey, the Meg had a great arrangement of 276 teeth that sat in 5 columns in its mouth. Most fossilized teeth that have been recuperated show a lot of wear on the tips, and some have had the tips totally severed from gnawing on the bones of its prey.
